Best of all, everything works with your existing @outlook.com account. There's no switching or hassle!

What are the advanced security features?

Premium Outlook gives you additional protection when you open attachments or links in messages you receive.

Attachments

When you receive messages with attachments, Outlook.com scans the attachments for viruses and malware using advanced detection techniques that provide a higher level of protection against newly launched attacks. If Outlook.com detects a dangerous file, it will be removed so you don't accidentally open it.

Links

When you receive messages with links to web pages, Outlook.com checks whether the links are related to phishing scams or are likely to download viruses or malware onto your computer. If you click a link that is deemed to be suspicious, you will be redirected to a warning page.
